On the streets of Osaka Japan a humanoid robot dressed in a "sailor suit" high school uniform can be seen holding up an "Ask me!" banner and navigating people to an adult information center that directs potential customers to local sex clubs. The robot was designed to direct traffic around construction sites, but recently underwent a 500,000 yen ($4,000) upgrade to overcome a law preventing humans from soliciting business for sex clubs on the street.
Yep -- the Singularity is due any second now . . .

i'd say when the robot returns to its employers and asks for a discount, that's when the singularity is near... ;-)
And when it does come, I think we can all agree it's going to be Japan first. Also, that the face of the GLOBAL MIND will be Hello Kitty.
And what is it with Japan and girls in sailor costumes anyway?
Japan has weird kinks. I think it's becoming one of their chief exports.
Would the Internet have grown exponentially if it weren't able to help get people off more efficiently? I tell ya, the Singularity is DEFINITELY near when AI helps people get off, or, more precisely, get off more efficently!!!
